i am really excited about this movie..i have been following it for a while and when i saw the new trailer i freaked..it does have a transformer-esque vibe in the trailer..but it’s not hard to make that comparison when the only movie anyone seems to be talking about is transformers…it’s all relative…

Yeah, Blomkamp. I believe he’s Peter Jackon’s protege, so to speak. His name sounds like a dirty sexual term.

the aliens look kind of cool, especially in the mech suits. I think its closer to evangelion then transformers.

I just looked into it and it is Neil Blomkamp’s first film as a writer. He has directed a couple films in the past.

I’m genuinely excited about this, regardless of whether or not Peter Jackson is involved. I think this will be a “smart” alien movie that will be much more of a social commentary than a special effects extravaganza.

I expect it to be quite refreshing.

I saw this trailer yesterday and have been following the movie for a while now. I’m really excited to see it as it’s a new take on a very old social problem.

This is from the director that was originally involved in the now cancelled Halo movie. I believe this is his first film (based on an already existing short film).

If they hold up to the preview I think this movie has some potential.
